SoftBank Group (9984.T) experienced a 4.41% drop in its stock price on Thursday, despite reporting quarterly profits that exceeded analysts' expectations. A substantial gain of 1.33 trillion yen from its investment in Intel failed to alleviate investor concerns. The stock closed at 5,695 yen in Tokyo, down 263 yen from the previous trading session. The company's net income reached 347.3 billion yen, nearly three times the 120.23 billion yen reported in the same period last year.
